SCG Chemicals, or SCGC, has revealed the progress of the Long Son Petrochemicals (LSP) project, Vietnam's first fully integrated petrochemical complex. Recently, the company has initiated machinery testing and will further conduct extensive performance test run of the entire plant system. This is to ensure the utmost confidence in safety and production quality, with a strong emphasis on environmental stewardship and community engagement. The goal is to drive Vietnam's chemical industry forward, helping to reduce import dependency and promoting the growth of downstream industries. This project is expected to catalyze long-term economic growth and improve the quality of life. LSP aims to produce high-quality plastic resins for the global market, with a production capacity of 1.35 million tons per annum olefins unit and 1.4 million tons per annum polyolefins unit.

During the performance test run, LSP will produce high-quality polymers, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), to serve customers both domestically and internationally. This will help substitute the import of polyolefins and enhance the competitiveness of Vietnam's chemical industry."
